Description: | When you consider the means for an entire island to operate, you quickly get a sense of the importance of a reliable and efficient supply chain. In Canada, the supply chain is one of the most essential sectors of the economy, involving more than 767,000 workers from a range of occupations and industries. Cape Breton University’s newly designed courses in supply chain management introduce all facets of supply chain management from theoretical and practical perspectives.
As efficient management of transportation and logistics is vital to economic growth, organizations are increasingly placing emphasis on improving their operations and supply chain performance. A degree in supply chain management at CBU involves the management of materials, finances and information as they move from manufacturer to the end user. The four-year Bachelor of Business Administration program now offers students the opportunity to focus on supply chain management theory and practice, providing them with the foundations to understanding today’s global economy.
